He's a wicked guy and he's oh, so sly
And this mortal heart's his home
How he torments the weak
And he makes strong men weep
He has this whole wide world to roam
Oh, the little red guy
He has his fork aimed at me
He's as happy as can be
Going to thwart his aim
But I know it's all in vain
The little red guy won't go away
He's a wicked guy and he's oh, so sly
He just won't leave me alone
Though I loathe all that sin
To see that old devil grin
He wants to claim me for his own
Oh, the little red guy
He has his fork aimed at me
He's as happy as can be
Going to thwart his aim
But I know it's all in vain
The little red guy won't go away
He's a wicked guy and he's oh, so sly
As he rules upon his throne
See him shine as a light
To deceive wrong from right
Oh, hear the whole earth groan
Oh, the little red guy
He has his fork aimed at me
He's as happy as can be
Going to thwart his aim
But I know it's all in vain
The little red guy won't go away
